Suggested APPROACH for the article: correct length, tone, and detail.
[edit]Building on the above "short example", here is JUST AN EXAMPLE of how someone will need to write this article.
The current article is a non-starter as it simply describes only half or less of the movie. We must also be mindful of the excellent points made by the new editor above ..
- avoid even the "impression of" peacock words or POV
- get the length right
We can add to this (one would assume)
- it must actually describe all of the movie, not just the first half of the movie where "the lovers meet"
- there should be no incredibly detailed descriptions of "famous beloved" scenes
Here we go. Hopefully someone who has the right to edit this page, can take a couple of hours to write an article something like this suggestion. Good luck!
SUGGESTED ONLY article suggestion, with (1) completely avoid 'peacock/POV' problem (2) length (3) include all of the movie (4) no detailed scene descriptions of "favourite scenes". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.40.194.13 (talk • contribs) 10:05, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
- Yes, well, at least the current page is in English instead of the gibberish you produce. 2A01:CB0C:CD:D800:899:80ED:A6DA:BEAD (talk) 07:50, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
Time period of the movie?
[edit]Does anyone know what year is depicted in the movie. The computer that is used in the family looks lot like Toshiba T1000 so that would suggest 1985 or 1986. Linkato1 (talk) 11:40, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
- I think the film is set in 1994. Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 17:15, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
Requested move
[edit]- The following discussion is an archived discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the proposal was moved. --BDD (talk) 19:38, 21 February 2013 (UTC) (non-admin closure)
Whisper of the Heart (film) → Whisper of the Heart – No need for disambiguation since there is no other article titled "Whisper of the Heart". I guess the article is at the current title because the manga that it's based on had its own article (Mimi wo Sumaseba) but it was merged last year. Mika1h (talk) 22:16, 14 February 2013 (UTC)
- Support No need for disambiguation here. BOVINEBOY2008 17:22, 15 February 2013 (UTC)
- Support because the film appears to be the primary topic when compared to the manga. It seems possible to have an article about the manga, but I think it would be disambiguated. Basically, Whisper of the Heart can be the film article, and Whisper of the Heart (manga) can be the manga article if there is enough sourcing and effort. It can be similar to the setup of Road to Perdition (a film) and its source material Road to Perdition (comics). Erik (talk | contribs) 17:35, 15 February 2013 (UTC)
- Actually, I think it we did a manga article it would need to be at Mimi wo Sumaseba since unlike the anime it was never released in the West and therefore was never called Whisper of the Heart.--174.93.160.57 (talk) 00:10, 16 February 2013 (UTC)
- Support - the film is the primary topic. There is absolutely no need for a disambiguation here. We could use this as the main page and the manga on a separate page. For example, Grave of the Fireflies has two disambiguated pages: Grave of the Fireflies and Grave of the Fireflies (novel). Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 17:57, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

Setting part
[edit]In the "Setting" section, it notes that there are "three shops where fans of the movie meet". Which ones are they? I don't know, so I can't add them. 2600:8802:3A0B:3000:8044:EEC8:BA68:4204 (talk) 21:08, 23 November 2023 (UTC)
- I've gone ahead and removed § Setting; it was not written particularly clearly, and was completely unsourced to boot. It was also giving me a whiff of fancruft. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 08:44, 24 November 2023 (UTC)
